Non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI) is a life-threatening acute condition that has an overall in-hospital mortality rate of up to 75%. Critically ill patients are often admitted intensive care units (ICUs) due shock, and these frequently at risk developing NOMI. The objective this study was determine the clinical features critically with NOMI evaluate factors for among patients.We reviewed electronic medical records 7,346 who underwent abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography...
This study evaluated differences and shifting patterns in the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) 5-year gastric cancer survivors after either a distal subtotal gastrectomy (DSG) or total (TG).We analyzed prospectively collected HRQoL data 528 patients who survived 5 years without recurrence using European Organization for Research Treatment Cancer (EORTC) Core Quality Life Questionnaire EORTC Questionnaire-Stomach module according to type surgery. The purpose was identify proportion with...
Phase angle obtained using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) provides a relatively precise assessment of the nutritional status elderly patients. This study aimed to evaluate significance phase as risk factor for complications after gastrectomy in patients.We evaluated 210 patients (aged ≥65 years) who had undergone gastric cancer between August 2016 and 2017. The cutoff value was calculated receiver operating characteristic curve according sex. A retrospective regarding correlation...
Few studies have evaluated changes in quality of life (QoL) relation to body mass index (BMI) after gastrectomy. This study aimed evaluate the impact postoperative BMI on QoL distal gastrectomy gastric cancer patients.QoL data from European Organization for Research and Treatment Cancer (EORTC) gathered via QLQ-C30 QLQ-STO22 questionnaires were obtained 1,036 patients preoperatively at 1 year postoperatively. The divided into 2 groups: group - decreased unchanged or increased BMI.There 577...
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia has been increasingly recognized as an opportunistic pathogen associated with high morbidity and mortality. Data on the prognostic factors S. pneumonia in patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) are lacking.We conducted a retrospective analysis of data from 117 ICUs two tertiary referral hospitals South Korea between January 2011 December 2022. To assess risk in-hospital mortality, multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed.The median age...
The standard treatment for stage IB gastric cancer is curative surgery alone, but some patients show poor survival with disease recurrence after surgery. aim of this study was to identify prognostic factors and long-term in
This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of bedside peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) placement under ultrasonography (USG) guidance in general ward by a surgical intensivist-led vascular access team versus that PICC intensive care unit (ICU) or fluoroscopy unit.We conducted this retrospective all patients who underwent between March 2021 May 2022. Clinical, periprocedural, outcome data were compared for ICU, ward, groups, respectively.A total 354 placements made 301...
Background and Objectives: The prognosis of metastatic or unresectable gastric cancer is dismal, the benefits palliative resection primary tumors with noncurative intent remain controversial. This study aimed to evaluate impact gastrectomy (PG) on overall survival in patients. Materials Methods: One hundred forty-eight patients who underwent PG a nonresection (NR) procedure between January 2011 2017 were retrospectively reviewed select analyze clinicopathological factors that affected...
Background and Objectives: The ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic represents a global public health crisis that has had serious impact on emergency department (ED) utilization trends. aim of this study was to investigate the collateral effects COVID-19 ED trends by patients with mild severe conditions as well 7-day fatality rates. Materials Methods: We analyzed entries in Korean National Health Insurance claims database between 1 January 2018 31 December 2020. Six target...
Case summary A 45-year-old man presented to the emergency department with severe abdominal pain after deliberate ingestion of 200 cm3 polyurethane mixed methylene diphenyl diisocyanate and urethane primers. On an initial laparoscopic examination, foreign material was observed in peritoneal space haemoperitoneum. Emergency exploration then undertaken for suspected gastric perforation. Full-thickness damage identified on stomach wall during operation. The gastrointestinal tract gently removed....
